looks great - one nice thing to add on a MK night is to see the Electrical Water Pageant from one of the monorail resorts. We generally do the evening parade twice and follow once with wishes and the others with a drink on a monorail resort beach and a viewing of the Water pageant

Awesome!

The only things that maybe we would do diferent would be to only spend one day at AK and possibly miss out the 3rd universal day, only because we ve found that Universal studios can easily be done in a day and the same for AK.What hotel are you staying at, would you not want lazy pool afternoons?

I'm a little different with my view to AK - I'd keep the 2 days that the OP has. I think there is too much to do and see there (contrary to popular belief) to only give it one day.

The only thing I was wondering is what time your LTT dinner is. If you are leaving MK and going to Epcot for Illuminations you need to factor in time to get there, changing at the TTC and don't want to arrive later than 8 pm to navigate your way round/to the Lagoon for a decent view. If it's an early ressie, it all looks sound to me

the only thing I would say is that every time you have MK in your plan it's listed as the park to avoid for that day. Having said that it's really not down to be busy at all.

Its a 2pm dinner so plently of time to get over to Epcot and spend a few hours before the fire works.

Ah see we would call that lunch - but I'm Scottish so I'm funny like that

Your plans otherwise look great. You're so lucky to be going so soon. Have extra fun on our behalf

Last time we only did one AK day and missed quite a bit, but if we get everything done in that one day we probably wouldnt have a second. Never been to Universal so wasnt sure what to plan for it, the 3rd day may not happen if we get everything done and feel like we dont need another day thier

We are staying off site, and without a car so going back for an afternoon breaks going to be tricky, but thats not really our thing anyway. If we want time out we will probs just head over to DTD.

I was thinking the same as we call it Lunch too!
I also think AK has more to see then most think about,
I know it's not the most popular park but we really enjoy it and normally find the 2 days is good but we leave each day after around 4/5 hours then have a break and hop to another park for eve magic hours " we'll when they was decent 3 hours and had eve magic hours most nights) still so upset with that change!! Grrrr lol

 

[tinkerpea]

I think they look pretty good,

Just factor in that some days you may be too tired to do your evening activities if they are planned after like 7 or so, we always have the best intentions but some days just have to give in and go back for a decent nights sleep lol.

We also would do the. 3rd day at universal's parks so that you can just do your fav rides and hop to the next U park! I always find its great to give a day to each park then a day to mix it up

Im pretty sure the tiredness will hit us, but i like having a plan just incase

Last trip me and the fam went park open to park close pretty much all the first week, and by the second week we were sleeping in late and one night we even stayed in to watch titanic as we couldnt take any more lol.

What time do you arrive on the Friday? If you get to your hotel early enough it may be worth a trip out for a bite to eat at EoS and your first Disney fix

We should be at the hotel for half 5ish. Our plan after check in is to go to a local shop and get snacks etc for the room. Dtd could happen if we feel up to it, but can see us just wanting to get a early night.

Personally I would try and stay up and out as long as possible. If you go to bed early you'll be up at silly hour due to the time difference with no where to go as nothing will be open for ages You could of course start the day with a very early morning swim.

Plans look great!

We also go on Friday 13th

I try avoid being up before the coffee is available - at all costs

It was either last trip or the year before I was standing outside the foodcourt, mug in hand waiting for those doors to open. Someone came to the door around 10 minutes before 6 am and asked if I needed coffee and went and filled my mug for me. He was my hero for the day

We usually try not be in bed before midnight EST, as we usually go to bed around midnight at home. That has proven fairly successful in us waking more or less 6 am which is pretty much the routine at home. Once you get the time zone synced with your body on the first day, you're good to go
